Abstract: A processor is configured to execute instructions stored in a memory to control a traversal of a graphical element on a graphical user interface. While the graphical element is controlled to traverse the graphical user interface, the following are repeatedly performed. A random time at which a stimulus is to be output is obtained. A random duration associated with the stimulus is obtained. The stimulus is output for the user at the random time and for the random duration. The random duration is such that the output of the stimulus is outside a conscious awareness of the user. The output of the stimulus is configured to decrease a disturbance level associated with a disturbing memory of the user. A performance of a task related to the graphical element is monitored. After the repeated instruction, a score associated with the user is determined based on the performance of the task.

Abstract: A parameterized sensory system uses interactions with a graphical user interface to reduce a disturbance level associated with information particular to a user. Parameters indicative of a reminder phrase related to the information and an initial rating for the disturbance level are received. The graphical user interface is operated. Input indicative of interaction with the graphical element during the operation of the graphical user interface is received. Another parameter indicative of a new rating for the disturbance level is received thereafter. The user interaction causes a reduction to the disturbance level such that the new rating is lower than the initial rating. The user interaction is without active processing by the user as to the reminder phrase or the information such that the cause of the reduction to the disturbance level is related to the user interaction with the input interface without the active processing.
